UAE: Sharjah taps Indian market growth with 2,000 new company registrations in 2024

Sharjah cemented its position as a top investment hub for Indian businesses, with nearly 2,000 new Indian companies joining the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI) in 2024 alone. This brings the total number of Indian firms registered with the Chamber to around 20,000 — a significant 30 per cent increase compared to 2023. Abdallah Sultan Al Owais, Chairman of the SCCI, made the announcement at the Sharjah–India Business Forum in Mumbai, marking the first leg of the Chamber's trade mission to India. Organised by the SCCI and led by the Sharjah Exports Development Centre (SEDC), the forum brought together 15 Sharjah-based companies representing various economic sectors. The aim was to boost cross-border collaboration and highlight the emirate's economic potential to Indian investors. In his remarks, Al Owais described Sharjah as a strategic investment destination offering 'fully integrated competitive advantages". He emphasised that Indian companies play a vital role in the emirate's economic ecosystem. Sharjah's export and re-export volume to India totalled approximately Dh576 million, as documented through certificates of origin issued by the Chamber. Investor-friendly legal framework The event highlighted Sharjah's push to attract more Indian investors by showcasing the emirate's investor-friendly legal framework, developed infrastructure, diverse industrial zones, and high-potential sectors. During his keynote address, Al Owais expressed gratitude to the Indian business community, highlighting the strong and longstanding economic ties between the UAE and India. In 2024, the UAE ranked as India's third-largest trading partner, with non-oil trade between the two nations exceeding Dh240 billion — a 20.5 per cent increase from Dh199.3 billion in 2023. 'Mumbai boasts a strong economic foundation rooted in financial services, information technology, trade, and maritime shipping. It stands out as a strategic gateway for UAE businesses to explore and capitalise on high-potential investment opportunities across these vital sectors," said Al Owais. "This forum represents a key milestone in advancing bilateral business collaboration and enhancing joint efforts to grow trade and investment volumes,' he added. Fostering partnerships The forum featured a series of business-to-business (B2B) meetings and networking opportunities aimed at fostering partnerships across key sectors. The delegation also presented Sharjah's economic offerings, with Ali Abdullah Al Jari, Director of the SEDC, giving an overview of the emirate's advanced infrastructure and investor incentives. The trade mission will continue in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, until July 11. There, the delegation will host another business forum and hold meetings with Indian chambers of commerce to build on the momentum established in Mumbai. The mission supports the broader goals of the UAE–India Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (Cepa), which aims to raise non-oil bilateral trade to $100 billion by 2030.

Global asset tokenisation market value to reach $13.55 trillion by 2030

The asset tokenisation market is projected to reach $2.08 trillion in 2025, with expectations of further growth to $13.55 trillion by 2030. Real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation, in particular, is expected to surpass $500 billion by the end of 2025, according to some projections. Toyow, a next-generation, multi-category tokenisation platform, recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Nisus Finance for the tokenisation of funds and assets worth up to $500 million (Dh1.83 billion) as the latter plans to conduct a Security Token Offering (STO) of its real estate assets under management (AUM) through Toyow's marketplace. Toyow will build a dedicated STO launchpad for Nisus Finance, offering end-to-end technical and operational support. This includes smart contract development, blockchain integration, and full regulatory alignment across UAE, DIFC, and international jurisdictions. Investors holding Toyow token, will be able to invest in his fund using Toyow Token ($TTN). The partnership is part of Toyow's growing more than $38 billion tokenisation pipeline, which spans multiple asset classes and jurisdictions globally. Toyow is a multi-category RWA tokenisation marketplace that enables users to invest in tokenised physical assets through a unified, compliant marketplace, making traditionally illiquid assets accessible, tradable, and more transparent. Toyow, which started its operations in the UAE a few months ago, has already lined up billions of dollar worth of assets for investment by individuals and institutions. 'The UAE is emerging as a global leader in asset tokenisation, with initiatives like Dubai's Real Estate Evolution Space (REES) and the Dubai International Financial Centre's (DIFC) security-token framework. These initiatives are providing clear legal pathways for on-chain asset issuance,' Surajit Chanda, Co-Founder and CEO, Toyow, says. Disruptive technologies, such as asset tokenisation, could transform real estate over the next few years. Built on blockchain technology, tokenisation converts physical or financial assets into bite-sized, digital representations that can be securely traded or owned in fractional portions on a digital platform, a report by Deloitte said. 'Tokenised real estate could not only pave the way for new markets and products, but also give real estate organisations an opportunity to overcome challenges related to operational inefficiency, high administrative costs charged to investors, and limited retail participation,' it said. Real estate tokenisation is a major area of growth, with some predicting a market cap of $1.5 trillion by 2025, according to a report by Antier Solutions. Toyow's tokenisation covers a number of asset classes including real estate, commodities, movies, music, art, luxury cars, and many more. From asset onboarding and legal compliance to token issuance, secondary trading, and investor payouts, Toyow covers everything en-to-end. Its products are built for trust with strong focus on regulatory integrity, investor protection, and secure custody. 'Toyow's strategic focus on retail and institutional investors serve both everyday investors and regulated institutions while its token offerings have a global first compliant approach looking at the jurisdiction and custodial frameworks in different territories. Its token issuances are technologically scalable backed with smart contracts that come with dynamic rewards and automated compliance flows,' Surajit Chanda says. 'The UAE's progressive crypto and virtual asset framework (especially in Dubai and Abu Dhabi) provides an ideal launchpad for compliant RWA tokenisation.' Toyow is focusing on premium residential, hospitality, and branded commercial real estate developments in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, and Doha for tokenisation as $500 million worth of real estate tokenisation discussions already underway with developers in Dubai.

South Sudan seeks UAE bailout as economy crashes

South Sudan's President has had two official trips to the United Arab Emirates this year, forced by domestic economic and political problems he wants help to tackle. And Abu Dhabi's rising influence in the Horn of Africa means South Sudan could have found support to soften the blow of woes it has faced in Juba. Salvar Kiir left Juba on June 22 and only returned this week on Tuesday, a lengthy trip he said had involved seeking partners to invest in the country's economy. On both occasions, Juba said the visits were to strengthen 'bilateral relations and promoting investment opportunities in South Sudan.'Earlier in February, a dispatch from Juba said President Kiir had travelled to 'discuss co-operation in economic, agricultural, energy and infrastructure sectors.'A presidential spokesperson, David Amuor Majur, told the media ahead of the recent trip that Kiir would meet with a number of investment groups, where he would present 'a compelling case for investment' in South Sudan's key growth sectors. Abu Dhabi did not provide further details on the nature of agreements -- if any -- about the trip. But Juba has argued it was reforming its structures to make it easy for investors. The President's trip was, however, crucial in discussing other issues Juba is concerned with: The war in Sudan, which has seen nearly 200,000 refugees pour into South Sudan. The Sudan military government, out of protest, had severed diplomatic ties with the UAE. It didn't, however, cut entire communication channels, and South Sudan has remained a key contact as a go-between. As such, South Sudan has also carried the burden of war in Sudan, which the UAE has used to elevate its profile. In March, the UAE inaugurated Madhol Field Hospital in the Northern Bahr el Ghazal state in South Sudan, providing a 100-bed capacity, and several clinics to serve some two million people mostly refugees. The UAE had earlier, during a conference on Sudan, pledged $200 million worth of humanitarian aid. The chaos from Sudan war, however, has only piled to the misery. Juba had been looking to the UAE for support to inject some capital into its economy. Read: Kenyans sue Juba over unpaid salaries as public servants' woes riseCivil servants have gone without pay for months, with some even seeking legal redress in jurisdictions outside Juba, especially Nairobi. Programmes for political reforms, part of the 2018 peace deal, have mostly missed deadlines or stalled, according to a recent status report by the Reconstituted Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission (R-JMEC), a body set up to check violations of the peace deal. In May, South Sudan government spokesperson Martin Lomuro refuted reports in the UAE that Juba had signed an oil deal worth $13 billion, which would have seen it get the money as a loan to be repaid through oil for a 20-year period to the Hamad bin Khalifa Department of Projects, a private firm. Dr Lomuro, however, did not deny that South Sudan was looking for similar financing. South Sudan is the most oil-dependent country in the world, with nearly 98 percent of its revenues coming from oil exports. But some of its 150,000 barrels per day are already sold up to 2026 before extraction. China, Japan, Italy, and Singapore had been the main buyers of the oil via the pipeline to Port Sudan but supplies to Port Sudan for onward export have been hugely disrupted by the war in the north. South Sudan's economy has faced turmoil including political violence. It is expected to lose at least 4.3 percent of the GDP, with an annual inflation of 143 percent. In fact, a recent report by the African Development Bank said 92 percent of its 16 million population now live below two dollars a day – a 55.4 percent rise from the poverty levels 14 years ago, when the country seceded from Sudan. The South Sudan Country Focus 2025 released in Juba on June 25, states that poverty levels in South Sudan have been on the rise at every turn, due to conflict, which has impacted oil production, taken a toll on the economy and affected development indicators. Read: At 92pc, South Sudan sinks deeper into povertyAfDB cites World Bank poverty data, which shows the share of South Sudanese population living below the poverty line increased from 51 percent in 2011 to 82 percent in 2022. The following year, it worsened and became widespread, rising from 84 percent in 2023 to 92 percent in 2024. The International Monetary Fund, however, says the economy is projected to start recovering after oil production resumed following the repair of a pipeline damaged in February 2024 in the war in Sudan, and which had halted exports. Last month, IMF staff and the South Sudanese authorities reached an agreement on a nine-month Staff-Monitored Programme (SMP) to start in August 2025. The SMP will support 'designing and implementing policies and key reforms to strengthen its economic resilience to shocks, enhance macroeconomic stability, restore sustainability, and improve governance and transparency,' a dispatch said. © Copyright 2022 Nation Media Group.
